Product Description
Book Description
Patterns of fascinating intricacy are the legacy of ancient Celtic artists, who intertwined the beauty of the natural world with the mystery of the spiritual world, as it was then perceived. In these designs, fantastic men, beasts, birds and serpents writhe and bite their way through twisting bands of knotwork and swirling spirals, in dazzling, never-ending linear displays. Artists, crafts people, colourists, and all who love pure design will find these pages, inspired by the Celtic tradition, absorbing and challenging for use in stencilling, needlework, calligraphic design and many other applications.

Not what I expected.,
This review is from: Celtic Design Book (Paperback)
I must admit that i was expecting a teaching-book, and that's NOT what this is. The book works nice as clipart/inspiration, but hardly anything else. Thin. In series with her "abstract art nouveau designs", which is much the same. If you buy this book with the intention of getting a colouringbook, a book from which you can copy some designs, or similar, youll be pleased, if you want to learn about celtic design and art, try Aidan Meehan.
